The story begins on a Texas farm, where Christy Beam is picking flowers while playfully calling out to her three daughters—Abby, Anna, and Adeline—who are playing outside in their church dresses. She reminds her husband, Dr. Kevin Beam, to get ready as they prepare for their regular Sunday church service. After attending church, the Beam family hosts a monthly picnic for their vibrant community and congregation at their home. One night, as part of her nightly routine, Christy goes to each daughter's room to say prayers with them. Abby expresses her hope to make the Fort Worth All-Star team during her prayer.
